Great location across from the harbor. We had a king room with harbor view & balcony. It’s on a busy corner so it wasn’t quiet but nighttime wasn’t too bad. Staff were super friendly!
Many restaurants within walking distance & the pathways along the beach were amazing!

Great weekend stay with the family. There were 8 of us so I got two rooms connected. Rooms and hotel were clean. The breakfast was good and convenient. Hotel is near the beach with the pier about 15 min walk away and into downtown. The family enjoyed it.
